“I had high hopes for this podcast after listening to the introduction. However I was disappointed by the following episodes. The podcaster’s emotional outbursts, yelling at historical figures, unnecessary swearing, and bizarre nicknames for historical characters, are all juvenile and very disturbing. On the plus side the podcaster makes good use of direct historical sources. I wish the creator would re-record this series without the emotionalism, and ridiculous nicknames.
Edit: The Episode 6 judgment calls on which parts of the world were “civilized” in the nineteenth century was very colonialist, and euro-centric. This totally turned me off and rendered the series unlistenable.”
